Beautiful like a rose 🌹 but... fragile like a bomb 💣

Cap 78

Seeing that the situation could degenerate, Domenico and Laura rush to intervene between the two, trying to smooth out the conflict before the tension grows even more.

Domenico sits behind Massimo, and Laura sits behind Olga.

Domenico: Hey, what's going on with you two?

Calm down!

Massimo: Nothing happened!
Domenico: You are tense, calm please!

Massimo: What makes ​​you think that I'm nervous?

I'm not! I'm perfectly fine!

I told your wife, just to behave responsibly and not treat a child as if it were a toy doll!

Olga: (angry) What happened to you Don?

I absolutely adore my doll!

I know her since she was a new born , I'm her godmother and she's the daughter of my best friend.

How can it cross your mind even for a second that I could hurt her?!

And besides, you are forgetting an extremely important thing, I have a child, I am a mother, I know how to behave with a child.

I don't know why you get so fired up?

Why are you being so possessive?

Don't forget that I have known Maya since she was a new born, you only know her for a few hours.

You have no right to tell me how to behave with her!

Stop being so possessive, you aren't her....

Before Olga can finish her sentence, she is stopped by Laura, who realizes what her friend was going to say.

Laura: Oli, stop please!

At that moment Massimo turns his gaze to Laura.

Massimo: Laura, let her, she's right!

I have no right to interfere!

I'm not...

The words stop in Massimo's throat and he can no longer make a sound.

Domenico: Don you know she didn't mean that...

Massimo: It's okay, you don't have to apologize!

Massimo looks at Little Maya for a few seconds.

He goes to Laura and puts the little girl in her arms.

He tries to move away, but Maya grabs his hand.

Maya: (with an innocent and confused look) Massimo, what happened?

Massimo: My miracle, everything is fine, don't worry!

I have to go now, I have something to deal with.

Be good and listen to mommy! Love you, my little piece of heaven!

Before leaving, Massimo gives the little one a fatherly kiss on the forehead, then leaves the room before the others can react.

Domenico, Laura and Olga looked at each other not knowing how to react.

They were all agitated, and the first impulse was to run after Massimo, but they tried to keep calm, so as not to scare Maya.

Maya: (agitated) Mommy, what happened?

What happened to Massimo?

Why did he leave so suddenly?

Laura: (trying to control the tone of her voice) Everything is alright , my dear!

Massimo is fine! He told you that he had to leave because he had things to deal with.

Maya: (crying) Why are you lying to me?

Why?

You can't even look into my eyes when you tell me this, because you know it's a lie!

Laura: (takes a deep breath, trying to control her emotions and looks her in the eyes) Baby trust mommy, calm down please!

You have nothing to worry about!

Maya: Let me down, let me down!

I have to find Massimo!

I have to find him!

He needs me!

He needs me!
